  • ... that the deputy mayor of Jerusalem explained that the Sheikh Jarrah eviction cases are part of a municipal strategy to create “layers of Jews” throughout East Jerusalem? Source: Evictions in Jerusalem Become Focus of Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, May 7, 2021: "But Mr. King, the deputy mayor, said “of course” they are part of a wider strategy of installing “layers of Jews” throughout East Jerusalem. That policy, Mr. King said, “is the way to secure the future of Jerusalem as a Jewish capital for the Jewish people.” “If we will not be in big numbers and if we will not be at the right places in strategic areas in East Jerusalem,” he added, then future peace negotiators “will try to divide Jerusalem and to give part of Jerusalem to our enemy.”"

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: Yes
  • Interesting: Yes
  • Other problems: No - The framing of King explaining what the eviction cases are doesn't seem quite right, since it implies without sourcing that that's what they really are. How about "...described the Sheikh Jarrah eviction cases as part of...", or something like that?

Image eligibility:

  • Freely licensed: Yes
  • Used in article: Yes
  • Clear at 100px: No - Not quite clear enough at 100px, I don't think. Might need to add a different image to the article or run this without one.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: The article is of course not perfect (but articles don't need to be perfect for DYK), and the talk page is quite something, as are the talk pages for a lot of articles under ARBPIA. But this nomination is eligible and almost ready to go. With that said, I've flagged two minor issues with the nom above. Once they're fixed, please use {{subst:DYK?again}} to request another reviewer to double-check. ezlevtlk/ctrbs 23:33, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ezlev: thanks for this. I am fine with your proposed amendment to the hook. Many thanks.

  • Agreed. Ongoing issues with the article and a current rfc make it unlikely that this article ready anytime soon. It can be renominated if the article gets cleaned up and promoted to GA in the future. BuySomeApples (talk) 04:48, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Change the world 'Iraeli' in "On 2 August 2021, the High Court of Justice urged four Sheikh Jarrah families to accept a compromise deal that would nullify eviction orders and allow them to remain in their homes, but would require the families to recognise Iraeli ownership of the properties." to 'Israeli' as it is a typo HistoryResearcher101 (talk) 07:01, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is the English Wikipedia, absent some sort of translation closed captioned I dont know how this would help an English speaking audience. With a translation would be great though. nableezy - 13:40, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
